> my gig has a hard time _actually finding people to hire
lots of ppl have a hard time finding a gainful employment; seems there is something wrong with expectations (probably on both sides)

They tell me I "don't have enough experience with debian" and offer me to apply for the HPC job. I go and list them all the experience I have with every bullet point of the job offer, and mention that I've been using debian for 20 years and ask what specific skillset they are looking for. No answer except "all we can do is start the process for the HPC job".
I ended up finding something else where I'm not particularly interested, have no prior experience, but I'm paid way more than my previous job and they seem to love my work despite it being very slow and frustrating. So I'm just going to stick to that, and give up on the idea of finding "the dream job". More recently I found an offer where they told me they have a "multiple month hiring process" and I stopped answering to emails, pretty sure it's fake as well.
It’s pay, on both sides. Maybe remote working too.
People work for money, fake company “benefits” are a scam and people have caught up.
You're not _always_ looking to fill a position where good junior people can fit - that reduces the pool of acceptable applicants.
(In theory, the market dynamics are supposed to eventually match expected skills vs desired benefits.
I hope I'll soon get my passport to go live in theory.)
